When the statements are reversed, file.txt is not backed up because it has already been excluded. In the first example, file.txt is backed up. Here is an example where order is important. Include and exclude statements from the bottom up.Next, other include and exclude statements are processed from the bottom up. First, the TSM client processes all exclude.dir statements and removes those file spaces and directories from the list of objects for processing. The order of the statements is very important. Once a filesystem is included in a domain statement in some fashion it will be processed for backup using any include and exclude statements. DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -/tmp Include/Exclude Statements In this example all file systems are processed except /tmp. You can also exclude filesystems/drives using a "-". Any other disks such as the C: drive and the Windows system state would not be backed up. In this example only the F: and G: drives would be processed.
You can specify only certain filesystems/drives or exclude certain ones. If no domain statement is given ALL-LOCAL is used as a default.
In Windows, system objects and the system state are also included. "ALL-LOCAL" specifies all local disks or filesystems will be backed up, but not network drives. On Unix/Linux systems, a separate file is often specified with a statement like the following: INCLExcl /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/inclexclĪny filesystem that you want to be processed for backup must be included in a domain statement in the dsm.opt file.
Include and exclude statements will go in your dsm.opt on Windows or dsm.sys on Unix/Linux. Note: Additional information about include and exclude statements can be found here. The TSM client's method of include and exclude statements is powerful but not very easy to use, especially for new users. They also allow other options such as encryption and compression.
They allow you to pick and choose which files you want included in your backups and which to exclude. Include and exclude statements in the TSM config files allow control over what is backed up. This document explains how includes and excludes work in the Bucky Backup (TSM) Client.
